Akshay Kumar’s Sky Force has had a fantastic first week at the box office, showing steady performance even on its seventh day. The film, directed by Sandeep Kewlani and Abhishek Kapur, has managed to strike the right chord with the audience, thanks to its gripping storyline, high-octane aerial sequences, and patriotic appeal.
Sky Force is inspired by real events from the 1965 India-Pakistan war, focusing on the story of a squadron leader who went missing during the conflict. Sara Ali Khan’s performance has also been well received by fans. Released on Republic Day weekend, the film also serves as the debut vehicle for Veer Pahariya.
Impressive Box Office Performance In Week 1
As per reports by the Sacnilk, ky Force has crossed ₹85 crore net in India. On its seventh day, the film earned ₹5.13 crore net. The movie had a strong opening, collecting ₹12.25 crore on its first day, followed by ₹22 crore on the second day and ₹28 crore over its opening weekend. Throughout the week, Sky Force continued its steady run, adding ₹7 crore, ₹5.75 crore, and ₹6 crore on the subsequent days, ultimately surpassing the ₹85 crore milestone.
A Much-Needed Break For Akshay Kumar
Akshay Kumar’s last few films, including the high-budget Bade Miyan Chote Miyan (Rs. 16.07 crore opening) and flops like Khel Khel Mein (Rs. 5.23 crore opening) and Sirfira (Rs. 2.50 crore opening), failed to make an impact. After a string of disappointments, Sky Force’s strong week one gives hope for a turnaround.
